## Cluster Specification
### Hardware
Clariden consists of ~1200 [Grace-Hopper nodes][ref-alps-gh200-node]. Most nodes are in the [`normal` slurm partition][ref-slurm-partition-normal], while a few nodes are in the [`debug` partition][ref-slurm-partition-debug].
The nodes are interconnected with the [slingshot high speed network][ref-alps-slingshot-network].
